When is it best to bring in donations?

What if I have lots of books, vinyl, CDs or DVD’s or cannot get to the shop?

If you have a big donation that you are really unable to deliver, please e-mail bristolbookshop@amnesty.org.uk and we will see what we can do. At the moment we are unable to undertake any collections until mid June 2019.

I have some more expensive books, vinyl, CDs and DVD’s to donate, what will you do with them?

We have several means of ensuring that we get the best possible prices for rare or valuable books, by selling them on the internet, at auction etc. Please be assured that we will take every care to identify and make the best of your donation.

If you know your items are valuble, please bring this to the attention of the volunteers when you come in.

I have some slightly tatty books that I want to get rid of, are they any use to Books for Amnesty?

We are currently subscribed to a book recycling scheme who pay us to take away any unwanted books. So yes, any books unfit for resale will still make Amnesty a bit of money.

Do you accept magazine or encyclopedias?

I’m afraid we don’t. We will just recycle these and although we get money for the recycling, it takes up a lot of space that we don’t really have.

Have you thought about leaving us your library in your will, so that your books can help us in our fight for human rights after your death? Books do not always prove to be a useful legacy to leave to your family, they may find them difficult to dispose of, or may not be able to get the amount for them that the books are worth.
